On Mr Harry's advice...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Ooops! Wrong room.

<Shouts from outside the door> KEEP IT UP! I'm with you in spirit! I'll be having to retreat to the garage for a smoke when I'm at my parents this weekend, along with my Dad, cos my Mum's got a nose like a sniffer dog. I really should follow your example...

Oh go on then. One of these for each day so far:

How long before you start doing the dying swan when someone else lights up?

That's what winds me up about ex smokers. All the big disgust when really they just want one too.

So long as you never do that SG then good on yer & keep it up.

I did put on weight when I gave up amphetamines though. ;)

I did it for about five years last time. It's just as easy to get hooked again..... Which is probably why ex smokers are like nazis

The trick is to focus on the good stuff. If you blow your nose it doesn't come out black any more, you can actually run for a bus now, climbing flights of stairs doesn't leave you out of breath. Any bad feelings are just your body saying "hey! I'm getting better! There's no more gunk going into me!" You're getting miles more oxygen in than before, and it's a very strange sensation that takes a lot of getting used to. The depression is very hard though.

I'm five weeks and counting, cold turkey. And yes, it does get easier. Going out is tough though--but not so much in NY where smoking is banned in bars and restaurants, and it's far too cold for anyone other than the die-hard addicts to go outside.

As for the ex-smoker nazis, I find it best just to humiliate them. Case in point: A couple of weekends ago, I went out with a friend and her brother to one of the last smoking bars in NYC. Friend's brother whined bitterly about the smoke irritating his sinuses, how he can't breathe, can't take it, etc. Of course, I remember that friend's brother was smoking last time I saw him, not four months ago. He was getting on everyone's nerves, so I asked a well-timed question:

Friend's brother: Whine whine, b*tch b*tch, etc.

*Lull in general conversation*

Me: (loudly) But didn't you used to smoke?

FB: (pause) Yes.

*Laughter*

FB finally shut up and went elsewhere. Honestly.
